PLOTTING FOR THE MOVE! (EVERYONE WELCOME!)

[LENNOX RAFFERTY SELWYN]

I got the idea that we could all start plotting for what our characters are going to do after the site moves. Since the setting is moving from Boston to Charleston, SC, I'm sure we'll all want to come up with reasons why our characters are going or just to figure out what they're going to be doing after they get there. So, I'll start!

LENNOX

Since he's the account I'm signed in on, I'll start with him. Basically, Lennox is going to become the head of the Selwyn mafia. Connor is going to have an... accident, and Lennox is going to step up and fill the leadership position. The Irish mafia will become part of the larger organization - the Combined - so they won't actually be in control over the whole thing. It will be more like they're one 'branch' of it, so to speak, with control over their branch. They'll be part of a committee, a council, that rules over the larger organization of the Irish mob as a whole.

Lennox is still going to have his escort service which, I imagine, will be going strong by that time. So more positions will open up in that also. Lennox is single and free and has no final, so romance plots are open. He also needs some more friends because the dude is just lovable. lbr

KAHLAN

Because I always think of her and Lennox at the same time for some reason. IDEK Anyway, sweet little Kahlan will loyally be following her family to SC, and I imagine she will be the key to getting them situated in society there. She's got a keen eye for the social order of things, so she'll probably be arranging balls and get-togethers (and trying to ignore the fact that her older brother is crippled and may never walk again...). She's also going to have some lovely temptation thanks to her blossoming friendship with Kennedy Ramone, I'd imagine, but we'll have to see how that goes. ;)

CONNOR

He's been mentioned, but we don't know what happens to him. I guess we'll have to wait and find out. ;) He will be in SC, but he won't be quite the man he was in Boston. Blame the wheelchair for that. His fire will be out just a bit because of his injuries, so maybe some old rivals, or people in the Selwyn mafia could be like "Wtf?" Or even try to attack him. That'd be fun. muwhaha

LYSANDER

Well, he's been going through a rough time, we all have to admit this. xD He's exploring a darker side of him. He can be rude and mean to people now (but it's Ly-style, so it can't be that mean can it? idek). He's currently dating Jo - and still will be after the move - but that doesn't mean he can't be plotted with. Lysander is an outgoing, lovable little puppy-man, so love him up!

GENESIS

After losing her job in Boston because she was dating her client - awkward - she's become an official part of the Irish mob. She's their resident therapist, and she's working to bring Connor out of his shell (good luck with that, gurl). If you're a member of the Selwyn mafia, or even the Combined for that matter, she might have seen you once or may see you in the future. She will probably do a little business on the side on an unofficial level, I don't know. Let her play with your brainnnn... (okay, that makes her sound like a zombie or something xD)

SCOUT

Scout is now married and she and her husband will be moving to Charleston to get away from the city once Boston starts to implode. In an attempt to move to a 'quieter' life, they move to SC. However, one night when they go to a karaoke bar, Scout will be discovered by a traveling talent scout/agent, and she's going to be picked up by a record company. For once in their relationship, Scout will be the one in the spotlight. However, when the roles are reversed, she will have more attention on her, and that isn't all good attention. One of the men she worked to throw in jail will return to wreak havoc on her life, and he is going to attempt to kill her. Think "The Following" if you've ever seen an episode of that show. I haven't seen much of it, but it loosely inspired the idea. This man is a mastermind - and he's insane - so he will manipulate her into believing the only way she can save the lives of her loved ones is to kill herself. I would actually love it if someone has a character they'd like to use to be the ex-con, but if not, that's fine. It'll be a fun plot anyway. hee hee

CATO

Well, he's a douchebag, and he's going to soon be divorced from the wife he treats like shit. One night stands are always possible with him, until he realizes that he just might have feelings for his wife after all. Of course, by then, it will probably already be too late...

ORION

Ahhh my sweet Southern gentleman. Orion actually grew up in Charleston, so he will essentially be going home. Once he figures out the Selwyn mafia isn't to blame for the sex trafficking ring his mother was kidnapped and put in, he will be returning to his hometown to follow the wave of crime that flows there. The answer to the mystery of his life lays in Charleston, but I'm sure he'll hit some bumps along the way. He's currently single and open for any kind of plotting.

SEBASTIEN

Seb is a new character I will be creating on the new site. He's French (*swoon*), and he's a core member of Le Bâton. I don't have all of the details for him hammered out, but basically he's a manipulative bastard. I think he will also be in politics of some sort, like maybe a diplomat or something?, so he's crafty. He is a criminal, so although he comes across as a nice guy, he's got a dark core that really means you shouldn't trust him. Feel free to plot him up ahead of time!

[RHYS NOAH BLACKBOURNE]

RHYS

Okay! So, Rhys is heavily affiliated with the Irish mafia, but now that unfortunate things have happened to Connor and the rest of the Irish mafia, he's going to be very surreptitiously backing up. The man looks out for himself, and right now, siding with the Irish does not look like a great idea. However, this entire Combined thing? Lookin' pretty sweet. He thinks he can get some serious cash out of this shebang. Doing paperwork, cover-ups, making sure everything's all nice and tidy and looks equal, the occasional hitman job... On the side, though, he's trying to make sure that his own past looks squeaky clean so in case he has to, he can make a break for it without too many problems.

Mr. Rhys is currently single and ready to mingle with all of the men. He isn't picky. If it has a dick, it ships. Rhys also need friends because, hey! Handsome Scottish lawyer who's very good at what he does! He needs a wingman, some people to drink with! Sebastien and him need to have multiple conversations. Manipulative bastards manipulating each other and it would be like James freakin' Bond all over again.

LACIE

Dr. Lacie Nolan is free-lancing right now. She works as a doctor for whoever needs to be patched up, no questions asked. I'm just going to bs something really fast and say that she got chased out of Boston because of her affiliation with criminals and the hospital found out and was not amused, and so she decided to sneak away and go hang out in Charleston. Maybe she'll meet some hot French chicks from La Baton.

Ooh, Royal, maybe Lacie works with Connor because of his injuries and her background in trauma surgery, so she knows what to do and stuff? Like, Connor's sort of sidelined and "bleh, in a wheelchair" and Lacie can be all "HAVE SOME DRUGS. AND NOW, I'M GOING TO MAKE SURE YOU CAN WALK AGAIN."

JO

So, Jo's basically supporting Ly during all of this and juggling everything with her job. I'm going to say that she's getting a promotion to one of the more senior members of the force as a medical examiner. Jo is finally getting herself licensed to own a gun, too, because she's starting to get paranoid and wants to be able to protect herself and Lysander. Jo is also probably going to start fixating on finding her boyfriend's rapist, because that shit don't fly in the Reagan household.

I have two wanted ads up for characters associated with Jo, and I think I'm still going to want them. Her brother, and a dear friend/colleague. Jo needs police people to hang out with!

[LENNOX RAFFERTY SELWYN]

AHHHHH YESSSSSS I love all of this!

RHYS x ROYALS

For a long time, I've actually wanted Rhys and Lennox to be friends. Lennox comes across really stuffy, but I can see Rhys picking on him and slapping his butt and completely embarrassing Lennox. bahaha HOWEVER, if Rhys left the Irish mafia, or turned his loyalties elsewhere, Lennox would not like that one bit. Since we haven't ever rped them before, we can't really say they're friends now, BUT that doesn't mean they couldn't be! I could see Lennox threatening him or something. idk...

Rhys and Sebastien... bahaha Manipulative bastards manipulating one another. aahahaha I love it. Seb is going to be a pretty crooked asshole, but he would certainly use Rhys to his own advantage. Heck, he might even flirt with him and little bit just to be like "HAHA no." lolol I could see them being friends if either of them could ever trust someone else.

LACIE x ROYALS

Yesss a therapeudic doctor for Connor. That person who tells him he can walk and he's all glum like "Yeah... kiss my ass and leave me to die, kthxbye." I can certainly see some pretty entertaining interactions with them.

I also think Lacie and Genesis could have some friendship. They're both doctors - different kinds of course, but still - and Genesis is working to heal Connor's mind (good luck with that, gurl, that's all I'm sayin') while Lacie would be working to heal his body. They could bond over it. Plus, Genesis is completely out of her element with the mob. She was perfectly happy being a civilian psychiatrist, but when she loses her job and basically has no choice but to go with the Selwyns, she's going to be pretty off kilter. Since Lacie kinda still has that connection to 'civiliandom' she could perhaps help Genesis with the transition?

JO x ROYALS

Ahhhh Josander. <3 I really want to explore that darker side of him. I'm thinking, after the attack he probably shut down his clinic and maybe works with Nixon or something. But I kinda want him to fall off the wagon and become one of those tabloid people or something. bahaha It'd be hilarious.

Scout and Jo are besties. I've decided this. So their friendship definitely has to continue. Maybe, if Jo gets upset by the turn Lysander is taking, she could go to Scout for advice because she knows about the whole Nixon thing that lost Scout her job?
